Big East 2024 Offseason

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

[MU82]

Freakin' Nova.

[wisblue]

Starting to look like MU might have to beat Xavier to avoid the 4 seed in the BET.

I really thought Nova had a good shot to take Hall.

7 points in 45 seconds helps mitigate the 6 minute scoreless streak.

They're just wildly inconsistent Blue. 

[PointWarrior]

Or maybe they beat UConn?   Are they forfeiting the UConn game to save their energy for Xavier?

[WarriorDoc]

Shaheen Holloway sounds kind of like Mike Tyson.

[Herman Cain]

Excellent win for The Hall. Much needed for their tournament hopes.

Nova probably has to get to the BET Final to make the dance.

[Herman Cain]

Solid win for Butler. Bulldogs finish regular season 18-13. Made nice year over year progress.

[wisblue]

They're just wildly inconsistent Blue.

But Seton Hall is too. I thought Nova could take them.

Would Seton Hall own the tie breaker over us? I just booked my flight yesterday and it leaves Detroit at 2:30pm Thursday which is the tip time for the 4/5 seed. That would SUCK

Yes, Seton Hall would get it. It goes head to head first and then record against the top team in the standings. They were 1-1 vs UConn. Had we been tied with them with UConn, the comparison proceeds down the standings until there is a difference.

Yes... unless Creighton loses at Nova too. Then we would finish in 3rd.

Phuck

Good thing is we control our own destiny and I’ll also be in building on Saturday to beat X

[Its DJOver]

X has one non-DePual/Gtown win since January.  If we play the way we have without TKO thus far, we should come out with a win.  Lock up that 2/3 and see who we draw in NY.

[MU82]

On this date in 1982 ...

The NCAA tournament selection show was broadcast on TV for the first time. The No. 1 seeds were North Carolina, Virginia ... and DePaul and Georgetown.

Do you want someone to look it up or are you just not going to tell?

They beat Nova at home on Feb 7th, but that's not really the point.  If you're looking for a bounce back game and can't get either DePaul or Gtown, X right now is about as good as you can ask for. The fact that's it'll still be a Q1 game is an added bonus.

I was referring to the part about seeing who they draw in NYC.

If you know, just tell us. Otherwise, give me a few minutes.

[wisblue]

Here’s what I get assuming that Marquette beats Xavier and that DePaul and Georgetown both lose Saturday and in the first round of the BET. No reason to think either of those teams is suddenly going to do something they haven’t done in 34 combined tries so far this season.

The only two games that could have any impact on MU’s first opponent are Creighton at Villanova and UConn at Providence.

If Villanova wins, MU would get the 2 seed and play Providence (beware of more injuries).

If Creighton and UConn both win MU would be the 3 seed vs Villanova.

If Creighton and Providence win, MU would be the 3 seed vs St. John’s (a road game).

Kyle Neptune huddles give me Wojo flashbacks.

YEP, I give him one more year before that seat becomes red hot

[Eye]

If the seats not red hot yet, it's certainly headed in that direction. Guessing Wright been asked a whole bunch of times if he'd like to come out of retirement.

I seriously doubt the bolded. It will be interesting to see if Nova gives him another year or they decide that a with program like theirs, it would be best to get this over with and move on. Squandered talent this season.

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

Looks like Providence, SJ and Villanova all fighting tomorrow for the last first round bye in the BET.
